About

I love to cook… I love to eat… I guess you could say I’m hot for food!

Nothing puts me in a better mood than food. I like letting off steam in the kitchen whipping up yummy, healthy stuff for myself and my loved ones everyday. Fact: you are what you eat. That’s why I am now a vegan. You’ll notice at the beginning of creating hot for food I was an omnivore, struggling with the guilt of eating meat and other animal products. I slowly transformed my eating habits, way of thinking, and physical well being and I want to share those experiences with my readers.

Yes, Martha Stewart is scary, but the kitchen should not be. I believe everyone can learn to cook. I might not have gone to culinary school, but so what! I have a passion for cooking, an instinct in the kitchen, an adventurous palette, and a flare for food. And that’s all it takes to be a success in the kitchen.

hot for food is my place to share what I’m cooking up and eating… with recipes, ideas, ingredients, trends, ramblings, and reviews just for the fun of it!

My talents don’t stop in the kitchen. To check out what else I can do go to www.laurentoyota.com
